Re: Meet Murphy.......


What a sweetie-pie. I'm pleased that all his bloods have come back negative. Shame about his eyesight. Was it congenital or has something (infection or otherwise) caused it? Hopefully with love, food and care he'll bounce back and, despite his disability will find a new loving home.

If he's been done, how come he was still spraying though? Was it stress related?

Re: Meet Murphy.......


Dear Murphy - hope his eyes can be as good as possible once the infection has cleared. It's amazing isn't it that whatever he's been through, he can still respond to loving care.

Re: Meet Murphy.......


Good to know his bloods were ok but what a shame about his eyesight, I was hoping that with treatment he would have some vision..

I'm sure with your care he will learn to be trusting again Moli ....... it's good that he uses the litter tray too.

Re: Meet Murphy.......


He is a handsome man I'm so pleased his bloods were clear too. It's a shame about his eyesight, but he does sound like a lovely furbabe and I'm sure that won't stop him finding a home.....especially as he uses the litter tray (wonder how he finds it if he's blind )

Give him a hug from me Pat

We do nt think he was spraying Yola, the people found him, kept him one night, then threatened to chuck him out, I think its because he was blind and has medical problems....

He found it no bother, I am sure he can see a little bit...Not sure what has caused the blindness..... I have never seen such a small Siamese though...
